troon_villan Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I miss Stan. Current set up, it has to be Clark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LxYoungAVFC Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 (edited) Clark is a leader, has experience of being captain throughout his career so far at youth and reserve levels. Hasn't played for anyone else, probably more committed than "Mr Aston Villa" himself, Gabby. Think it's time for him to step up and show his worth to the team. I cringe every time Jack Woodward calls Gabby "Mr. Aston Villa". He says it a lot. It has to stop. Sorry, OT as hell but fook it.

Sam3773 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Charlie Austin if he comes in? Otherwise it has to be Clark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashingqwerty Posted July 20, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted July 20, 2015 i think we need to sign a captain, as i think its too soon for Clark. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted July 22, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted July 22, 2015 I'm not a fan of new signings being captains. Don't really know why, just doesn't seem right to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvfcTheObsession Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 What about a cheeky transfer for Gareth Barry, bring him back make him captain Maybe not the worst suggestion on a 1-year deal. Just not sure if he's too similar to Westwood and whether we need someone more attacking/box-to-box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvfcTheObsession Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Micah Richards was captain yesterday..... Ahead of Clark A thought on why Sherwood may have gone for Richards over Clark. If Okore hits form, Clark would be the one more likely to make way in the side at CB to allow Okore to come in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I hope not. Okore is right-sided, as is Richards, Clark is left-sided. I don't insist on balance, but if you have the option it's better. I don't think for a second Sherwood rates Okore of Clark, I think he just has a bit of a hard-on for Richards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted July 22, 2015 Moderator Share Posted July 22, 2015 I'm not a fan of new signings being captains. Don't really know why, just doesn't seem right to me. Under normal circumstances I'd agree, unless the current squad are completely bereft of an obvious candidate or the guy you're bringing in is of a calibre and stature that he's a no-brainer. I think Cambiasso and our squad might fit both of those criteria if he was to come in. Otherwise it's Clark for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMelvillan Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 What about a cheeky transfer for Gareth Barry, bring him back make him captain Maybe not the worst suggestion on a 1-year deal. Just not sure if he's too similar to Westwood and whether we need someone more attacking/box-to-box. oh here, I quite like this suggestion. Surely he would offer pretty much what Cambiasso can but he knows the club inside out. For a year, or at a stretch two, he would be a good signing. However, I can already predict the uproar from the more sensitive Villa fans if it were to happen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itdoesntmatterwhatthissay Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 An interesting position for Sherwood. The longest serving players are replaceable and the new signings aren't particularly ready or right. Westwood can't guarantee his place, Gabby, well it's Gabby. Hutton doesn't strike me as captain material though last year he was the one doing the right things week in week out and then Guzan, keepers aren't generally captains. Clark seems the most logical choice....perhaps he can continue stepping up..... I don't mind signing a captain, but those players come at a premium and in many cases without a firm grasp of the English language. Definitely looking forward to seeing who it is, can't quite believe he'd go for Richards but so far Sherwood has surprised me quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danishlad Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I think our best defence will be. Richards. Okore. Baker. Amavi. So I wouldn't have Clark as a captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker and Okore at CB over Clark? Are you a new Villa fan for the 15/16 season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
